Gu Chengze was completely considering He Lingchuan's situation from a friend's perspective, believing that He Lingchuan's chances of winning were slim.
He Lingchuan had already anticipated Gu Chengze's reaction when he voiced his idea. He frowned slightly and chuckled softly, "I have no other choice."
He curled the corners of his mouth into a bitter smile: "If I compromise now, Zhang Ying will only suppress me even more severely."
Based on his understanding of Zhang Ying, he is very likely to completely remove himself from the AI field.
“He will definitely find a way to suppress me and make sure I can never get ahead.”
He finally managed to get out of his marriage, how could he give up all the things he's held onto for so many years just because of Zhang Ying?
He Lingchuan looked at Gu Chengze with great determination: "No matter what, I'm going to give it a try."
This was his last chance. He vowed in his heart that even if he couldn't expose the true face of Chengfeng Group, he would at least sound the alarm for consumers and tell them that the people and products of Chengfeng Group were problematic.
He Lingchuan's resolute expression completely moved Gu Chengze. He pursed his lips, somewhat touched: "Lingchuan, I..."
“Chengze, from today onwards, this matter has nothing to do with you. I will leave the laboratory, and we should no longer have any cooperative relationship until I completely destroy Chengfeng Group.”
Gu Chengze looked at He Lingchuan with a puzzled expression, asking, "What do you mean?"
Is he trying to distance himself from me? Gu Chengze shook He Lingchuan's shoulder forcefully: "You think I'm scared?"
“Chengze, listen to me. You and I are different. I only have myself to feed, but you have elderly parents to support and so many employees to take care of. You can’t fool around with me.”
At worst, he can simply retire behind the scenes and sell his copyrights and patents. Even if he really doesn't win against Zhang Ying, he can make a comeback simply by changing his name.
But Gu Chengze is different. If Zhang Ying is really determined to suppress him, it will be very difficult for him to make a comeback.
So many of his employees are waiting for him to eat; I've already dragged him down once, I can't let him down again.
Before Gu Chengze could speak, He Lingchuan had already made the decision for him: "Don't say anything more. If I really need help, I will definitely come to you. Now, you must listen to me."
He Lingchuan didn't give Gu Chengze a chance to speak at all; he turned around and went to his office to pack his things.
Before leaving, he suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
He thought he had finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel, and that he could make a name for himself after leaving Shen Yanxi, but he never expected it to be so difficult.
But this is good too. How can you know how dangerous the outside world is if you don't encounter setbacks?
To avoid gossiping about Gu Chengze behind his back, He Lingchuan did not choose to go through the main gate.
He planned to leave the lab secretly, without letting anyone see him.
As soon as he pushed open the laboratory door, he was surrounded by a crowd.
He Lingchuan assumed they had come to demand justice from him, and feeling somewhat guilty, he anxiously explained, "Don't worry, I won't implicate you anymore, I..."
"Teacher He, we believe in you."
"We believe you haven't cheated those consumers, and we believe in your capabilities."
"Teacher He, if you ever need any help in the future, just let us know, and we'll do anything for you."
He Lingchuan looked at the people surrounding him with some surprise. Most of them had received his guidance, so it wasn't an exaggeration to call him "teacher."
He Lingchuan raised an eyebrow, turning his face away to try and hide his barely concealed expression: "Why are you guys saying all this?"
He Lingchuan felt a lump in his throat; he hadn't expected them to support him so much.
“Teacher He, we’ve known you for so long, we know you better than anyone else what kind of person you are, we know you would never do such a thing.”
"That's right, this must be Chengfeng Group framing you, you must hold on!"
“Professor He, we know you are looking for evidence. Tell us what you need us to do, and we will do it now.”
"That's right, Teacher He, please don't be so polite with us."
They each said something, and He Lingchuan became increasingly confused about the meaning of his door.
"I don't need you to do anything."
He Lingchuan scratched his head, asking them with some confusion, "Didn't you come to see me off?"
The group of people looked at each other, equally confused: "Teacher He, you must have misunderstood. We've come to persuade you to stay."
"That's right, Teacher He, we don't want you to leave."
"Who will explain things to us after you leave?"
"Teacher He, please don't leave."
Hearing their words, He Lingchuan was somewhat surprised: "Yes, Gu Chengze sent you?"
Gu Chengze knew his own personality; he knew that once he made a decision, it was impossible to change it.
He Lingchuan frowned, his face growing increasingly somber: "I don't really want you to get involved. I have to handle this myself."
"Teacher He, are you saying you're never going to come back?"
"This war between you and Zhang Ying is unlikely to end in a few days and nights, Teacher He. What should we do if we encounter problems?"
He Lingchuan knew they wanted to persuade him to stay. Faced with their strange reasons, He Lingchuan smiled helplessly: "If you really encounter any problems, come to me anytime. Chengze has my contact information. However, it's best if we don't have any contact at work."
After saying the last word, He Lingchuan turned and left.
He showed no regrets, leaving them only with a resolute back view.
After He Lingchuan left, Gu Chengze walked out from behind them.
He sighed helplessly, and could only respect He Lingchuan's choice.
...
After leaving the laboratory, He Lingchuan went to Shen Yanxi's place.
She and Zhang Ying are in the same boat; their collaborations extend far beyond this one.
She definitely knows something.
Upon hearing that He Lingchuan had arrived, Shen Yanxi's lips curled up. She stood up excitedly and looked at He Lingchuan outside the door.
"Ling Chuan, you've arrived?"
He Lingchuan responded coldly, his gaze towards Shen Yanxi filled with indifference and shrewdness: "You should know that Zhang Ying and I have a terrible falling out."
He Lingchuan cut to the chase, not intending to exchange pleasantries with Shen Yanxi: "What are your plans?"
Shen Yanxi stood frozen in place, her outstretched hand hanging in mid-air: "What do you mean?"
"Isn't my meaning clear enough? I intend to deal with Zhang Ying."
He Lingchuan leaned forward, knowing that Shen Yanxi still wanted to get back together with him. He deliberately asked, "As my ex-wife, are you planning to help me or him?"
Shen Yanxi withdrew her hand after succeeding, her tone becoming somewhat serious: "Ling Chuan, are you here to interrogate me?"
